I tried building with MS Visual Studio 2005 from PCBuild8/pcbuild.sln, and for me it fails miserably. The first major complaint comes when linking pythoncore, where the inittypes symbol can't be found. On the other hand, allowing MSVS to convert PCBuild/pcbuild.sln works okay. Am I missing something? Yes, it doesn't work in Python 2.5 as released. This specific problem has been fixed in the trunk and the 2.5 branch several months ago, so I recommend to use either of these

Okay, thanks.

(or use VS 2003 to build the released version).

VS2005 seems to work just fine for the released version as long as I stay away from the PCBuild8/ stuff.
